The ECSQ season continues with a concert of joy and sorrow: themes that are continuously grappled by composers over the years. New works offer new insight while old classics still continue to ring true. Haydn’s “Sunrise” Quartet opens with the sublime rising warmth of a new day. Mozetich’s Lament in the Trampled Garden is a neo-romantic Canadian gem that is mournful, but sways with the joy of blooming flowers. Our last piece of the concert is Borodin’s famous String Quartet No. 2, full of beauty and nostalgia. The piece is rumoured to have been a 20th anniversary gift to his wife, and is meant to portray the story of the time they first met.
La saison de l’ECSQ continue avec un concert mêlant la joie et la tristesse : des thèmes qui ne cessent d’être abordés par les compositeurs au cours des années. Les nouvelles œuvres offrent de nouvelles perspectives, tandis que les vieux classiques continuent de sonner avec pertinence. Le Quatuor “Sunrise” de Haydn s’ouvre avec la chaleur sublime d’un nouveau jour qui se lève. “Lament in the Trampled Garden” par Mozetich est un trésor canadien néo-romantique qui est en deuil, mais qui oscille avec la joie des fleurs qui s’épanouissent. La dernière pièce du concert est le fameux Quatuor à cordes n° 2 de Borodin, plein de beauté et de nostalgie.
Embark on a musical adventure through myth, legend, and fantasy! Nadia Francavilla and Julien Leblanc present George Enescu’s sweeping and majestic Sonata No. 2 in F minor for violin and piano; complementing this well-loved and romantic work, two short pieces by Czech composer Vítězslava Kaprálová. Rounding out the program, Karol Szymanowski’s Mythes depicts ancient Greek tales of river gods and forest nymphs, while Mel Bonis’ Femmes de légende transmits, via the medium of solo piano, the stories of women whose fates have become legendary.
Join us for this mythical journey on March 13, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. in the beautiful Memorial Hall, at 9 Bailey Ave. Tickets are $30 regular, or $15 for students.
The Bel Canto Singers and Sussex Choral Society present Faure’s Requiem and other works in concert.
